There are basically two sources for hair care products in Pensacola FL, one are retail outlets such as drug stores and supermarkets and the other is salons. There appears to be a considerable difference in price between the two, with the salon hair care products tending to be considerably more expensive. Is there really a difference between the two that warrants this price differential?
The debate can be traced to the ingredients that are used in shampoos, both products usually contain the same ingredients but most certainly the formulations are not the same. Hair care products in Pensacola FL that are purchased in a salon are known to have larger concentrations of higher quality ingredients, this is not the case with products purchased in the grocery store. To address themselves to a mass market, the manufacturers of hair care products that are sold at retail must use cheaper ingredients otherwise they could never produce a product which was affordable to the larger market. Whereas the supermarket type products are formulated with cost as the primary consideration, the hair care products formulated for sale through salons are formulated for performance.
The cleaning agent in shampoo is called a surfactant; it is this ingredient that helps with the lathering as well as the actual cleansing. The cheaper brands of shampoo use ammonium laurel sulfate as the surfactant, this is much harsher than sodium laurel surfactant which is the ingredient used in the gentler, more expensive products.
Of course, shampoo is more than just the cleaning agent; shampoos also contain conditioners and moisturizers. Salon products have a considerably larger concentration of these valuable ingredients and are needed to help the cleaning agent penetrate the hair strands and scalp. By using a product with higher concentrations of these ingredients, less of the shampoo is needed to do clean the hair properly. As this is the case, value for money rather than simply price actually may make for a more affordable shampoo.
The manufacturers of cheaper alternatives will often spice up there advertising by touting the fact that their product has various aromas, colors and ingredients to create more lather. These additives have very little if anything to do with performance, even the addition of aloe is of little use in cheap shampoos as the concentration is negligible.
